Our minds work very differently... if you're good at producing results and enjoy what you're doing keep doing it :)
Some of us do most work in stretches of "flow" that involves disconnecting our minds form the outside world and from the people around us. We "go deep" like in a state of trance for stretches of time. We probably work faster, but we also need more and longer breaks between these stretches of hyperintense work. Others like you (maybe most?) can work while aware of time and their surroundings. It's good that we're different, each approach has advantages and disadvantages, we all discover what works best for us individually... just respect the needs of the people around you, let them work however fits them best!
As a "flow-er", the most important skill I've learned is how to be productive even when I can't get into flow. As a non-flow-er, you should probably learn the opposite: find tasks and ways of working that can help you discover "flow"... even if you won't experience it very often, it's worth experiencing it!
